A Quick Guide to Portland, Oregon

I’ve been to Portland, Oregon a couple of times now, so it feels familiar whenever I return. If I’m being honest, though, Portland isn’t exactly my favorite city. I have my reasons, which I might elaborate on in the future, but I will start this post by clarifying something: my lack of infatuation for Portland is not for the lack of cool places.

During my brief visits to Portland, I spent a lot of time wandering around, both with friends and on my own. I’ve come across a lot of great shops, cafes, and restaurants that I would definitely recommend. Portland is best-described as a city of neighborhoods, and taking the time to explore a new one is always fun. You never know what gems you’ll find!

I’d like to create a more organized and detailed guide to Portland in the future, but for now I really wanted to share some favorites with you guys. Consider this a quick resource for your next trip to Portland.
